A lot of people talked about the Khumo 712's, I am planning on getting a set for myself.

Don't put an all-season tire on your ITR. It won't perform as well as a high-performance ("summer") tire. You didn't spend all that money for an ITR just so that you could compromise that performance with medium-performance tires, did you?

Are the 712's performance tires good for all season?

between Pirelli P7000 and Kumho 712 which one is more preferable ?

If my understand correct 712 isn't an all season.

If you can deal with a 195/50/15, Sumitomo HTR4s from Tire Rack are ~$50 and work well.

Falcon AZENIS 205/50/15, very nice tire and good price. Might be difficult to find.

why is it that you're looking for all season tires?

Don't put an all-season tire on your ITR.

I've used the Dunlop SP5000's for 2 winters now. They are a pretty decent tire that does not make much noise when pushed and has a decent level of overall grip. I was quite suprised how well they corner. The only down side is th soft sidewall. It will take a little bit to get used to and the first time you dirve with them the handling will seem really strange. Another plus is the excellent wet weather grip. They did great on the highway even in a huge downpour with standing water.

I would recommend them for a allseason tire, but dont be expect the performance to be on the same level as an S03 or RE010.

Why can't he put an all-season tire on his car? I have Dunlop SP5000s on mine and they work great. For really warm weather or track days, I put the Falken Azenis on (which are definitely not all-season tires).

I would not use all-season tires as my only tires though.
